Major developments include the emergence of non-steroidal mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists and incretin-based therapies for heart failure (HF) with mildly reduced and preserved EF, the validation of rapid guideline-directed medical therapy optimization strategies in acute HF, and new evidence supporting digitalis glycosides in HF patients with reduced EF. Device-based care has evolved with transcatheter edge-to-edge repair for valvular heart disease. These data are likely to reshape contemporary clinical practice.
